HOSE-END SPRAYER INSTRUCTIONS

Shake container well before using.

Connect a garden hose to the Ready Spray nozzle. Make sure the dial on the nozzle is in the “OFF” position with the safety tab in the valve notch.

Turn on water at faucet. Extend hose to the farthest area to be treated and work toward the faucet.

To BEGIN spraying, point nozzle toward lawn
a) bend the safety tab (located at right of dial) back and hold,
b) using your other hand, QUICKLY turn the dial clockwise until it stops. Water will automatically
mix with the product.

Spray until wet to control weeds. Walk at a steady pace while spraying using an even sweeping motion, slightly overlapping treated areas. One quart will treat up to 5,000 sq ft of Southern or Northern grasses.
For rectangular areas, calculate square feet by multiplying length by width. Refer to sight gauge to guide coverage (example: when bottle is half empty, you should have covered half the area).

To STOP spraying, QUICKLY turn the dial in the opposite direction of “ON” (counterclockwise) until it stops and the safety tab engages into the notch. Turn water off at faucet. To relieve pressure before removing nozzle from hose, bend the safety tab back and turn dial “ON” until water stops spraying.

To STORE unused product, make sure the dial is in the “OFF” position with the safety tab in the valve notch.
